On January 19, 2017, the Company consummated its initial public offering following which its shares began trading on Nasdaq.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves risks. Before you make a decision to buy our securities, in addition to the risks and uncertainties discussed above under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” you should carefully consider the specific risks set forth in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, or any updates in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, together with all other information appearing in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement. If any of these risks actually occur, it may materially harm our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. As a result, the market price of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. Additionally, the risks and uncertainties described in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or in any document incorporated by reference herein or therein are not the only risks and uncertainties that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may become material and adversely affect our business.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will receive up to an aggregate of approximately $153.3 million from the exercise of the Public Warrants and $76.7 million from the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, assuming the exercise in full of all the Warrants for cash. We expect to use the net proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants for general corporate purposes.

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of Class A Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following summary of the material terms of our common stock is not intended to be a complete summary of the rights and preferences. We urge you to read our certificate of incorporation, which is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, in its entirety for a complete description of the rights and preferences of our common stock.

Authorized and Outstanding Stock

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of 261,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of (i) 260,000,000 shares of Common Stock, including 250,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share and 10,000,000 shares of undesignated common stock, and (ii) 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

As of April 6, 2023, there were (i) 149,961,428 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding and (ii) no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

Common Stock

Voting Power

Except as otherwise required by law or as otherwise provided in any certificate of designation for any series of preferred stock, the holders of common stock possess all voting power for the election of our directors and all other matters requiring stockholder action and are entitled to one vote per share on matters to be voted on by stockholders. The holders of Class A Common Stock shall at all times vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of common stock under our certificate of incorporation.

With respect to any matter other than the election of directors or a matter for which the affirmative vote of the holders of a specified portion of the shares entitled to vote is required under Delaware law or by our certificate of incorporation, the act of the stockholders shall be the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on, and voted for or against, the matter at a meeting of stockholders at which a quorum is present; provided that, for purposes thereof, all abstentions and broker non-votes shall not be counted as voted either for or against such matter.

Dividends

Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding shares of preferred stock, under our certificate of incorporation, holders of Class A Common Stock will be entitled to receive such dividends and other distributions, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors in its discretion out of funds legally available therefor and shall share equally on a per-share basis in such dividends and distributions.

Liquidation, Dissolution and Winding Up

In the event of the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the holders of common stock will be entitled to receive the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of common stock held by them, after the rights of holders of the preferred stock have been satisfied.

Preemptive or Other Rights

Our stockholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no sinking fund or redemption provisions applicable to our common stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of common stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by the rights of holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that we may designate in the future. The rights, preferences and privileges that may be granted to holders of our preferred stock, were we to issue such preferred stock, could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, and sinking fund terms, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of common stock. Our issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that such holders will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation.

Election of Directors

Our board of directors is currently divided into three classes—Class I, Class II and Class III with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class serving a three-year term. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors. Accordingly, directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast at an annual meeting of stockholders by holders of our Class A Common Stock.

Table of Contents

Fully Paid and Non-Assessable

All outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

Preferred Stock

Our certificate of incorporation provides that shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our board of directors is authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special and other rights, if any, and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. Our board of directors is able, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the Common Stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of our board of directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of us or the removal of existing management. We have no preferred stock outstanding at the date hereof.

The particular terms of any series of preferred stock to be offered by this prospectus will be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to the offering. The description of the terms of a particular series of preferred stock that will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement does not purport to be complete and will be qualified in its entirety by reference to the certificate of designation relating to the series.

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law, our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

We have “opted out” of Section 203 (“Section 203”) of Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), regulating corporate takeovers, such election having become effective on October 17, 2018. Instead, our certificate of incorporation contains a provision that is substantially similar to Section 203 but excludes the investment funds affiliated with The Gores Group LLC and Platinum Equity, LLC, each of their successors, certain affiliates and each of their respective transferees from the definition of “interested stockholder.”

Section 203 prevents certain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a “business combination” with:

 

   

a stockholder who owns fifteen percent (15%) or more of our outstanding voting stock (otherwise known as an “interested stockholder”);

 

   

an affiliate of an interested stockholder; or

 

   

an associate of an interested stockholder, for three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder.

A “business combination” includes a merger or sale of more than ten percent (10%) of our assets.

However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

 

   

our board of directors approves the transaction that made the stockholder an interested stockholder, prior to the date of the transaction;

 

   

after the completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, that stockholder owned at least eighty-five percent (85%) of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than statutorily excluded shares of common stock; or

 

   

on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by our board of directors and authorized at a meeting of our stockholders, and not by written consent, by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.

Our certificate of incorporation provides that our board of directors is classified into three classes of directors. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of our board of directors only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings.

Our certificate of incorporation requires the approval by affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of our common stock to make any amendment to key provisions of our certificate of incorporation or bylaws.

 

7


Table of Contents

In addition, our certificate of incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors. Our board of directors is empowered to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the board of directors or the resignation, death or removal of a director in certain circumstances; directors may be removed from the board of directors only for cause. Stockholder action by written consent is prohibited, which forces stockholder action to be taken at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders. Meetings of the stockholders may be called only by members of our board of directors, which may delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors.

Our certificate of incorporation provides for 1,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock may enable our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise.

Our authorized but unissued common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Forum Selection Clause

Subject to certain limitations, our bylaws provide that unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers or other employees or our stockholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or our certificate of incorporation or bylaws; or (iv) any action asserting a claims governed by the internal affairs doctrine. In addition, our bylaws provide that unless consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the federal securities laws of the United States against us, our officers, directors, employees or underwriters.

Earn-Out Agreement

Under the Merger Agreement, the Selling Stockholder is entitled to receive additional shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Earn-Out Shares”) if the volume weighted average closing sale price of one share of Class A Common Stock on Nasdaq (the “Common Stock Price”) exceeds certain thresholds for a period of at least 10 days out of 20 consecutive trading days at any time through October 17, 2023, the five-year period following the closing of the Business Combination.

The Earn-Out Shares may be issued by the Company to the Selling Stockholder as follows:

 

Common Stock Price thresholds

   One-time issuance of shares  

> $13.00

     2,500,000 (1) 

> $15.50

     2,500,000 (1) 

> $18.00

     2,500,000  

> $20.50

     2,500,000  

 

(1)   On April 26, 2019 and on January 27, 2020, the Common Stock Price thresholds above (each, a “Triggering Event”) for the issuance of the first and second tranches of Earn-Out Shares occurred, as the Common Stock Price as of that date had been greater than $13.00 and $15.50, respectively, for 10 out of 20 consecutive trading days. These Triggering Events resulted in the issuance of an aggregate 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock to the Selling Stockholder.

If any of the remaining Triggering Events are not achieved within the five-year period following the closing of the Business Combination, the Company will not be required to issue the Earn-Out Shares in respect of such Common Stock Price threshold. In no event shall the Selling Stockholder be entitled to receive more than an aggregate of 10,000,000 Earn-Out Shares.

If, during the earn-out period, there is a change of control (as defined in the Merger Agreement) that will result in the holders of the Company’s Class A Common Stock receiving a per share price equal to or in excess of the applicable Common Stock Price required in connection with any Triggering Event, then immediately prior to the consummation of such change of control: (i) any such Triggering Event that has not previously occurred shall be deemed to have occurred; and (ii) the Company shall issue the applicable Earn-Out Shares to the cash consideration stockholders (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (in accordance with their respective pro rata cash share), and the recipients of the issued Earn-Out Shares shall be eligible to participate in such change of control.

Registration Rights

We are party to an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement with, among others, the Selling Stockholder, dated as of October 17, 2018 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, (i) any outstanding share of Class A Common Stock or any other equity security (including shares of Class A Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise of any other equity security) held by the Selling Stockholder as of the date of the Registration Rights Agreement or thereafter acquired by the Selling Stockholder and shares of Class A Common Stock issued or issuable as Earn-Out Shares to the Selling Stockholder and (ii) any other equity security issued or issuable with respect to any such share of Class A Common Stock by way of a stock dividend or stock split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other reorganization or otherwise will be entitled to registration rights.

The Selling Stockholder and its permitted transferees are entitled to certain registration rights described in the Registration Rights Agreement. Among other things, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Selling Stockholder is entitled to participate in six demand registrations and will have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements, other than certain underwriting discounts and selling commissions and expenses. We and the Selling Stockholder have agreed in the Registration Rights Agreement to provide customary indemnification in connection with an offering of securities effected pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part has been filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, but does not constitute one of the demand registrations available to the Selling Stockholder thereunder.

SELLING STOCKHOLDER

This prospectus relates to the possible resale by the Selling Stockholder of up to 5,000,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock. The Selling Stockholder may offer, sell or distribute all or a portion of the Class A Common Stock registered hereby publicly or through private transactions at prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices.

When we refer to the “Selling Stockholder” in this prospectus, we mean PE Greenlight Holdings, LLC and the pledgees, donees, or other transferees who later come to hold any of the Class A Common Stock other than through a public sale, including through a distribution by the Selling Stockholder to its members.

The following table is prepared based on information provided to us by the Selling Stockholder. It sets forth the name and address of the Selling Stockholder, the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock that the Selling Stockholder may offer pursuant to this prospectus, and the beneficial ownership of the Selling Stockholder both before and after the offering. We have based percentage ownership prior to this offering on 149,961,428 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of April 6, 2023.

We cannot advise you as to whether the Selling Stockholder will in fact sell any or all of such Class A Common Stock. In addition, the Selling Stockholder may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, the Class A Common Stock in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date of this prospectus. For purposes of this table, we have assumed that the Selling Stockholder will have sold all of the Class A Common Stock covered by this prospectus upon the completion of the offering.

In connection with the distribution of the securities covered by this prospectus or otherwise, the Selling Stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions. In connection with such transactions, broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of our securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume with the Selling Stockholder. The Selling Stockholder may also sell securities short and deliver the securities offered by this prospectus to close out short positions. The Selling Stockholder may also enter into options or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions that require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus, as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction. The Selling Stockholder may also from time to time pledge our securities pursuant to the margin provisions of customer agreements with a broker. Upon our default, the broker may offer and sell such pledged securities from time to time pursuant to this prospectus, as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction.

At any time a particular offer of the securities covered by this prospectus is made, a revised prospectus or prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed which will set forth the aggregate number of securities covered by this prospectus being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any underwriters, dealers, brokers or agents, any discounts, commissions, concessions and other items constituting compensation from us or the Selling Stockholder and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers. Such prospectus supplement, and, if necessary, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, will be filed with the SEC to reflect the disclosure of additional information with respect to the distribution of the securities covered by this prospectus. In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the securities sold under this prospectus may only be sold through registered or licensed broker-dealers. In addition, in some states the securities may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

The Selling Stockholder and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by the Selling Stockholder and any other participating person. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares.

In connection with an underwritten offering, we and the Selling Stockholder would execute an underwriting agreement with an underwriter or underwriters. Unless otherwise indicated in the revised prospectus or applicable prospectus supplement, such underwriting agreement would provide that the obligations of the underwriter or underwriters are subject to certain conditions precedent, and that the underwriter or underwriters with respect to a sale of the covered securities will be obligated to purchase all of the covered securities, if any such securities are purchased. The Selling Stockholder may grant to the underwriter or underwriters an option to purchase additional securities at the public offering price, less any underwriting discount, as may be set forth in the revised prospectus or applicable prospectus supplement. If the Selling Stockholder grants any such option, the terms of that option will be set forth in the revised prospectus or applicable prospectus supplement.

Underwriters, agents, brokers or dealers may be entitled, pursuant to relevant agreements entered into with us, to indemnification by us or the Selling Stockholder against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in this prospectus, any supplement or amendment hereto, or in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, or to contribution with respect to payments which the underwriters, agents, brokers or dealers may be required to make. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, we have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholder against certain liabilities related to the sale of the securities covered by this prospectus, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholder has agreed to indemnify us against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the Selling Stockholder specifically for use in this prospectus, any supplement or amendment hereto, or in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, subject to the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, we have also agreed to pay the costs, expenses and fees of registering the securities covered by this prospectus, other than applicable underwriting discounts, commissions and transfer taxes.
